...great. Just what we need to make OKC look good.

[SoonerBoy18]

YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!! I have always wondered if we were ever going to get one but always thought it was impossible!

[betts]

I wonder how many of them I will know. I know Carol Hefner. She had a daughter who sadly was very ill and died, but I remember her bringing a Persian rug and silver tea service in to her daughters room at Childrens. Since she had to stay awhile, it was going to look nice. I totally know a couple of people who shod be on that show.

[Dustin]

Oh god no.

Real HW's of OKC ... starring keeping it real OK HW's selected from

... women, who mainly live in Nichols Hills, Edmond and Gaillardia.

[RadicalModerate]

I wonder if Sweet Brown is married . . .

[rezman]

Great! ... that's JUST what we need. Well, we're a "Big League" city now, guess we have to be like all the others.

[BBatesokc]

I don't get all the 'hate.' Does anyone really judge any of the other cities or counties based on the 'characters' in those locations that already participate in the show?

Well, being from Jersey, I can say that Jersey Shore did a ton more to damage our reputation than Real Housewives. The only people who seem to watch RHW are people who are interested in that lifestyle anyway, so meh. It might make OKC look pretty bad but I think it's impressive that it is coming here!

I dont see why some many people are against this. To me this is a platform where women can take this opportunity and run it with it and try to strive for more success in the entertainment industry. I think it also to motivate people who don't live that lifestyle to keep working hard and never give up and hopefully one day, they too can be one of the "Well to do" people of America. This would be great for Oklahoma City because its true some people are tired of the reputation that we all ride on horses and love country music!

Agreed. Anything that shows the nation there is more to OKC than country music and rodeo is a good thing. People from outside this city are still by and large very ignorant of it, despite the increased publicity since the Thunder's arrival. The media tends to exacerbate the problem. I saw a CNN report after the tornado where the reporter actually painted OKC as a rural farming community.

[HangryHippo]

What's with the Lost Ogle and Steve's tweets about this? Sounds like there's more to the story.

[adaniel]

I have a friend/source in the "biz" (I've always wanted to say that LOL) who says this has legs. Bravo has wanted to develop a housewives franchise in the interior of the country for some time now. Their first choices were Dallas and Nashville, but for a myriad of reasons they all fell through. So they are definitely serious about this and if they review it and like what they see they will go with it.

As for all the people who say OMG this is is so bad...come on guys, you know you're totally watching this ish when it comes out!

[Anonymous.]

I still have no idea what this is about even after researching it on Wikipedia.


Would be cool to see OKC get some more spotlight, I am not against any show here. I just hope the people they cast on it are not cliche Oklahomans. Based on the comment of that lady in the article's comments - I don't have my hopes up.

What's wrong with that. First, I've known Carol for years and think she is a fantastic lady. Second, my dad was in Saint Anthony's for almost a year and we brought a lot of things from home so his room would feel more comfortable for us and him.

I like how they showed shots of them filming the show at bankrupt Gailardia Country Club...

Well the country club is still open as it is apart of the community. The club needs new ownership and management, but the people living in there are still far from bankrupt.

What platform? The participants aren't going to be in control of what is presented. These types of shows tape for hours on end and then edit out a snippet here and a snippet there to tell whatever story the producers want to tell. Often taking everything out of context and presenting folks in the worst possible light because conflict and drama sells much more than everyone being nice.

Agreed. Anything that shows the nation there is more to OKC than country music and rodeo is a good thing. People from outside this city are still by and large very ignorant of it, despite the increased publicity since the Thunder's arrival. The media tends to exacerbate the problem.

Yeah. Right. Showing that we have rich snobish folks (after the appropriate editing mentioned above) just like other cities is the way to do it. Reminds me of Roseanne (Barr/Arnold) back in the day when she was married to Tom Arnold...she remarked (and was eventually written into the show when they won the Lottery), that they were everyones worst fear...white trash with money.

Was this talking about OKC proper or the reports the morning after that focused on the damage in El Reno and Union City?? The damage out there that they showed certainly looked like "rural farming community"

[bchris02]

Larry, I believe it was before May 31st but after May 20th. The report wasn't directly related to the tornado but moreso trying to showcase the way of life in OKC. I believe they primarily showed the stockyards.

[Kokopelli]

If this show happens, my guess for one of the participants would be Vanity Perkins. That is, if Perk doesn't get traded.

Obviously, lol.

Rich ladies do extravagant things on camera and have lots of scripted cat fights.

The end.

[Dustin]

I think one of the girls on the Beverly Hills show is from Tulsa. Her husband also committed suicide while the show was filming...
